flaps
Roy Smith wrote: 10 kts too fast over the threshold is pretty significant. I don't fly the 177RG, but I found a checklist on the net that lists normal landing speeds at 60-70 kts and Vfe (top of the white arc, which is what you said you were doing on final) as 95. That's 25-35 kts too fast to land. 35 knots too fast isn't a flap issue. That's a serious training issue. At least he wouldn't have been hurt in the wreck since he was so far behind the airplane.
